Keir Starmer gave his first speech outside Downing Street just hours after Rishi Sunak gave his final speech, ahead of handing in his resignation as Prime Minister.
Ex-shadow secretary Emily Thornberry has not the cut for Keir's new cabinetSir Keir Starmer has ushered in his new cabinet ministers making some surprising moves including his appointment of James Timpson as prisons minister.
Another recognisable face joining the ranks of Starmer's new roster is Sir Patrick Vallance - who acted as a chief scientific adviser during the COVID-19 pandemic. Chair of the Employers Forum for Reducing Re-offending until 2016, the Timpson's boss has been applauded for his schemes rehabilitating offenders.
Whilst being well involved in the day-to-day runnings of his family's business since 2002, the managing director has managed to up company profits from £3 million to over an eye-watering £20 million. Several Labour minister headed to Downing Street this morning to face up their new bulging in-trays after their historic victory.
Union bosses this evening demanded Mr Streeting come forward with a 'credible' offer to end the junior doctors' dispute on pay, as they eye a 35 per cent wage hike. Although many of the newly promoted minister's looked forward to diving in the deep end, Sir Starmer decided there was no place for Emily Thornberry in his government.
